The ongoing Iran war is disrupting container shipping routes, leading to increased shipping costs and inflation concerns. Ships are avoiding the Strait of Hormuz, opting for longer routes through India, Sri Lanka, and the Panama Canal. Container shipping prices have surged over 30% since the conflict began, impacting global trade and potentially raising consumer prices. The situation poses risks to the fragile global supply chain, already affected by previous geopolitical tensions.
